How to getred plug in icon in address bar

Can not get javascript plugin in firefox. Instructions say , select options- content tab-mark 'enable javascrit check box' no such box appears under my content tab. A little further down on the same page it says 'javascript enabled in your browser'.
Have not got red plug in icon in my address bar, how do I get it?. this would be the simplest way for me to enable/disable javascript.
Main reason is that I can not enlarge photos in eBay.

Hello,
In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and protect users from unintentially damaging their Firefox, the option to toggle JavaScript was removed from the Firefox Options window.
However, the option to toggle JavaScript was not removed from Firefox entirely. You can still access it from about:config or by installing an add-on.
'''about:config'''
# In the address bar, type "about:config" (with no quotes), and press Enter.
# Click "I'll be careful, I promise"
# In the search bar, search for "javascript.enabled" (with no quotes).
# Right click the result named "javascript.enabled" and click "Toggle". JavaScript is now enabled.
To Re-disable JavaScript, repeat these steps.
'''Add-ons'''
You can alternatively install an add-on that lets you toggle JavaScript on the fly, such as
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/noscript/ No-Script] (to disable JavaScript on a per page basis, as required)
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/quickjava/ QuickJava] (to easily disable and enable JavaScript, automatic loading of images, and other content)
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/settingsanity/ SettingSanity] (adds back removed options for JavaScript, Advanced JavaScript Settings, loading images, and showing the Tab Bar)
Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar?

    How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar? Like something just wants me to use that embedded search when u type something not-web-address in address bar and hit enter. And the most ridiculous thing is that it happens repeatedly on like every second, like I just move down from address bar and start typing again, but then again it switches me to address bar, and 3, 4 times like that. And the result is also that I can't see the address of that page.
    I think its has something to do with my AVG antivirus, because this started the same time some AVG Nation started to appear in every new tab i open (and thats also irritating me, I read about it here on support.mozilla.org and it seems that the only solution is to completely reinstall Firefox, but I dont want to lose all my settings) but when i type something in address bar and hit enter it opens the search results in Google.
    Please try to help me, I like Firefox but I must switch to Chrome until I fix this problem.
    Thanks in advance

    First, please update to Firefox 32. 22 is no longer support nor is it secure. Then let us know if you still have this problem. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

  • How to hide extra text and icons in address bar

    I want to make the icons and extra text in the address bar go away since they do nothing for me and only take up space that I need to use to see the whole URL. Right now there's a green padlock icon on the left side with 1/4 of the space taken up by "Mozilla Foundation (US)" instead of the URL, other times it's a little globe or a little lego/car battery looking thing, or several icons in a row. There's a permanent star shaped thingy on the left and a down arrow that want to get rid of as well. I don't care at all what they mean, I just want them gone. I need to see as much of the URL in the URL bar as possible, not a bunch of icons and extra non-URL text. The address bar should be for addresses, and that's how I want my browser to function. I don't care one single bit what those icons or extra text are for, so please don't try to advocate for their staying. I've made up my mind 100% that I want them gone. Can I make them go away, yes or no?

    I use code to hide the URL in case of a EV certificate and only show it on hover.
    You still see the green padlock.
    That gives me extra space on the location bar

  • How to put the focus on the address bar, when opening a new tab in Safari?

    Dear users, I'm using Safari 6.0.3 (8536.28.10) under OSX 10.8.3. Until recently, whenever I opened a new tab in Safari, the focus was always on the address bar, which was quite useful. However, since last week, maybe after an update (I don't know exactly), the focus of a new tab is always on the page, not the address bar. How can I go back to the previous configuration? I changed no options, it simply got sudeenly different, and it's quite annoying. Thank you for the help.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.

  • Why in address bar in not the url but "go to the web site"? How can I see url in the address bar?

    Why in the address bar is not URL but "go to the web site"? How can I see the URL in the address bar?

    those are some addons that other users have reported to cause the same problem in the past: Gom player, Ask Toolbar, DivX (Plus) Web Player, RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin...
    in case you have one of them present, try to disable/remove it - otherwise you could disable all your extensions & reenable them one by one (a restart of the browser might be necessary after each step) until you find the culprit.

  • No icon in address bar

    Safari used to show the icon for my web site in its address bar, but doesn't any more. There has been no change to the favicon.ico file, but our site is on a new server with possibly slightly different configuration. Also, more than one version of Mac OS X (and therefore probably Safari) has gone by since I last recall seeing the icon in the address bar.
    If I trash the ~/Library/Safari/Icons folder, Safari re-fetches favicon.ico from the server, but still does not display it. The site in question is www.animalhead.com. Have the criteria that Safari uses for the "correctness" of an icon changed?
    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Craig MacKenna

    I keep answering my own questions on Apple forums. Does this make me eligible for any special awards, like "self-healing"?
    After reading some stuff about icons, I had added the following line to the main configuration file (httpd.conf) of my Apache2 server, several months ago:
    AddType image/x-icon .ico
    When I comment out this line and restart the server, my little favicon shows up just fine in Safari.
    Wikipedia suggests using "image/vnd.microsoft.icon" instead of "image/x-icon", but I can't bring myself to try anything with the m-word in it just now. Maybe I'll try it in the future...

  • Change firefox icon in address bar

    I'm attempting to customize firefox to look like IE, don't ask why, trust me I don't want to. But anyway, I downloaded FoxE9, that kinda customizes firefox to look like ie9, which I think its the closest I'm gonna get.
    Only problem Im running across is the firefox icon that is in the address bar on the left side, I think its called a favicon?
    Is there any way to change or remove it? Also this is firefox portable version 26.

    That isn't a correct action for the URL bar.

  • How can I stop multiple switching to address bar when navigating to pages?

    Recently, whenever I go to a new page, Firefox will place my cursor focus in the address bar - if I try to click away it puts the focus right back into the address bar. If I wait for the page to load completely, I can click away without the focus returning. I have an add-on that places the focus in the address bar when I open a new tab, but it's never done it whenever a page loads.
    It's driving me crazy, because normally when I go to a page I scroll using the arrow keys... which I can't do when my cursor is in the address box. I just updated to Firefox 34.0, which didn't fix the problem. I can't find an option to change this in the preferences window, and I can't identify anything that changed to make it do this...

    A possible culprit is the Custom New Tab extension.
